[superavrillavignefan]

could you do a proper review on this one?

[jthornley12]

@superavrillavignefan I already have, a video on my channel called "ACME NB16 Buying advice review" I think it's called ;D

[superavrillavignefan]

@jthornley12 aight chill :P must of missed that one, anyway go or no go? wanna spend around 150 max on a car... been on forums and i know a fair bit about them cars... think imma go for this one and get better quality starter kit from graupner at my hoppy shop. (10 euros more but then u get quality) fuel 16% at my hobby shop 2

[jthornley12]

@superavrillavignefan No go :) Go for ACME Attacker which is much better, better engine.

[wusalol]

are you danish

[jthornley12]

@wusalol No I'm not. I'm british :)

[Djd4246]

Aww that sux! But if they do the shipping must be horrible so if I were you I would buy a lot of stuff so there is only one shipping charge instead of several ;)

[jthornley12]

@Djd4246 Yup, but I would not get exceed stuff :) I have heard things about it. If I did order from USA I would go for Redcat racing RC's from xenonproject :D

[Djd4246]

No 1/10 model lil

[Djd4246]

@jthornley12 no I said 1/10 lol but they also have fast 1/16 you just have to check em out;)

[jthornley12]

@Djd4246 Ah yeh just read it again :) I will check it out, trouble is- No exceed rc stuff is available in UK I don't believe.

[Djd4246]

Cool paint job but the 1/10 exceed begginer version w/ .16 engine looks so much better! Check it out at nitrorcx.com it's fresh!

[jthornley12]

@Djd4246 Are you sure it has a .16 engine? .16 on a 1/16 seems a little big :)

[nokiamel]

hsp meteors are better they go slightly faster

[jthornley12]

@nokiamel sure :) In fact I was looking at one of them yesterday in my local hobby shop hehehe

[nokiamel]

@jthornley12 fast but servos blow easy

[jthornley12]

@nokiamel Yup so do the ones in NB16 :) i've replaced them many times

[jthornley12]

@nokiamel yup your right. small servos never last long :(

[BBoyStyle96]

@thornley12 how fast do u think this little buggy goes??

[jthornley12]

@BBoyStyle96 30-35 perhaps if your lucky. Its not a speed demon put it that way ehhehe :)

[BBoyStyle96]

hey jthornley,i was planning to get one of these nb16 buggy but i was wondering if its good..i heard that the diffrential breaks easy??

[jthornley12]

@BBoyStyle96 Never had any problems with the Differentials :) It is a good car- good for beginners, recommended by me. It has lasted well

[BBoyStyle96]

@jthornley12 what part of the car u had problem the most??

[jthornley12]

@BBoyStyle96 well I have never had problems :) Just normal stuff- like servos stripping etc. I suppose the thing I had most problems with is the stock plastic exhaust system- it melts easy for some reason. so if you get it, buy metal one then no problems there :)

[BBoyStyle96]

@jthornley12 where did you get your alluminum exhaust at??

[jthornley12]

@BBoyStyle96 From Nitrotek UK. If your in different country then google it and see what comes up :)

[BBoyStyle96]

@jthornley12 i'v been experinced alot about nitro rc..but i juss want a off road buggy..

i think about it.. thanks.

[jthornley12]

@BBoyStyle96 Ok well If you are experienced, then get something else :) Like I said, NB16 is very good for beginners, but for pro's/ experts it probably wouldn't satisfy them ;)

[lukereidy100]

hey man i was wondering whats ma problem my car starts fine but it runs away and i need to rev it up or drive it to let it settle like i need to drive it down the road and back and then when i stop the rev dips and when i tern down the idle nothing happen and its quite rich lots of smoke and when im driving about half a tank i need to stop because it get really hot and i need to let it cool down then start it again and keep going like tht want do i need to adjust.

[jthornley12]

@lukereidy100 Lean it out a bit. Watch my video on "How to fix a slipped idle speed screw" and then see :) if it gets hot then you should try richening the high end. Lean the low end though, if RPM dips then that means low end is running too rich :)

[lukereidy100]

well ive tuned my car and i think i done some thing wrong when it starts the revs are very very high and i have to rev it up to let them settle but when im drving it and when i let go of the accelerator on the remote the car stays at the same speed and when i tern the idle down nothin happened do i lean it and tern it down then or adjust the hsn

[jthornley12]

@lukereidy100 Thats not a tuning problem, that is something wrong with throttle linkage. You need to check that the servo is working ok, and that the idle speed screw is not too loose. Check those things and let me know :)

[lukereidy100]

i was running my car on cheap green tencions fuel and it was running owful cutting out or god man it was bad and it was getting hot to quick with the fuel but there is ma problem i run it on red fuel now it runs gud but does the revs affect the heat sink to get hot quicker .

[jthornley12]

@lukereidy100 Well of course the more RPM you give the engine, the hotter it will get. Dont run it too lean then the temperature will be good :)

[nokiamel]

@lukereidy100 the fuel sucks i would reccomend traxxas top fuel or bryan fuels race gen 2 there high quality fuels

[jthornley12]

@nokiamel I'm using 20% and 30% Nitro monster Juice at the moment :)

[lukereidy100]

you told me to lean out my low speed nedal a bit and turn up my idle i did that and now my car idles fine but its stud still and and clutch bell i slightly moving a ting bit do u think it will be ok or do eny damage and as soon as i tern the down a bit i just out so i leave them quite high but not to much and i was just woundering would it be ok like that they a rubing up and do at each outher a tiny bit they spur gear and the cluctch bell i hope it will be ok if they do it what do u think.

[jthornley12]

@lukereidy100 It doesn't matter if the clutch bell is moving slightly- no worries :)

[lukereidy100]

is lean ccw

[jthornley12]

No its clockwise. Mate check out my tuning videos. CCW=Richen CW=Lean

[lukereidy100]

how come when i start my rc nitro car it starts on 1 or 2 pulls mostly 1 but i need to leave my glow plug in for a long time like a minute and then it run's fine how come if i leave it in for 2 seconds it cuts out also it has been tuned quite well and also it a slide carb how do i increase the idle speed i turn the idle screw clockwise but not much idle increasing happens help.

[jthornley12]

Lean out the low speed needle a bit. And increase idle. Also check glow plug. :)

[weliketogloatitfc]
